Github is not very FSF-friendly. AFAIK, you must have an account to participate in the discussions. In order to make an account, you also need to run a non-Free JS. To post a question, you usually have to open an "issue" on the website. Though you can leverage Magit to do it for you without browser. (https://magit.vc/manual/forge/) Tracking new "issues" is somewhat easier - you can make Github send emails to you and you can reply to those emails normally - the replies will show up as "comments" in Github page. Also, once you created an issue, you can reply by email if you configured Github to send you email updated. Best, Ihor
